BAE Systems Awarded $70.1 Million Contract For Reset Work On Bradley Combat System Vehicles BAE Systems has been awarded a contract modification worth $70.1 million from the U.S. Army??™s Tank-automotive and Armaments Command (TACOM) to reset Bradley Combat System vehicles. In conjunction with the company??™s Public Private Partnership with the Army??™s Red River Army Depot (RRAD), BAE Systems will return 101 Bradleys to combat ready status for the 1st Cavalry Division. ???This program shows the benefits of our Public Private Partnership with Red River Army Depot,??? said Andy Hove, BAE Systems??™ director, Bradley Combat Systems. ???By working together on the National Level Reset Program we can get a high quality Bradley back into the hands of soldiers in a very short period of time.??? Disassembly and component overhaul work will be performed at RRAD and BAE Systems in Fayette County, Pa. Final assembly and test will be conducted at the company??™s York, Pa., facility. The Bradley Combat System has played a centerpiece role in Operation Iraqi Freedom and continues to provide outstanding survivability, mobility and lethality to U.S. soldiers in all types of close-combat urban scenarios or in open-combat terrain. The Bradley Combat System fulfills critical infantry, cavalry, fire support, battle command and engineer roles for the Army's heavy brigades. Work on this effort begins immediately, and vehicles are expected to be delivered through March 2006. Source: BAE Systems |
